    Hi all - using Solaris' bundled ppp which includes pppoe support.

    I got pppoe working OK for the most part. However, I have a few issues:

    1) DNS - I get the DNS servers but it doesn't put it in the right spot.
    Now I know this part can be scripted with an ip-up script; however, when I
    do a manual move it does seem to take effect. Do I need to HUP a service to
    reread /etc/resolv.conf? In the past I never worried about it...it always
    seemed to work as long as there was a resolv.conf already there on bootup.

    2) How do I hang up the pppoe connection? I can't seem to find that
    command.

    3) The "persist" option....should that be in the options file or the "peer"
    file? The man page indicates the option file; however, usepeerdns needs to
    be in the peer file. How can I ensure that the persist option is taking
    effect?

    Thanks,
    Marco
